Flash Flood Warning
National Weather Service Billings MT
534 PM MDT Mon Jul 21 2025

The National Weather Service in Billings has issued a

* Flash Flood Warning for...
  The Northern Remington and McGhee Burn Areas in...
  Southern Rosebud County in southeastern Montana...

* Until 830 PM MDT.

* At 534 PM MDT, Doppler radar indicated thunderstorms producing
  heavy rain over the Northern Remington and McGhee Burn Areas.
  Between 1 and 2 inches of rain has fallen. Flash flooding is
  likely occurring. Excessive rainfall over the burn scar may result
  in debris flow moving through the Hanging Woman and O`Dell
  drainages. The debris flow can consist of rock, mud, vegetation
  and other loose materials.

  HAZARD...Flash flooding caused by thunderstorms in and around
           the Northern Remington and McGhee Burn Areas.

  SOURCE...Radar indicated.

  IMPACT...Flooding of areas in and downstream of the Northern
           Remington and McGhee Burn Areas.

* Some locations that will experience flash flooding include...
  Birney, Birney Village and Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Life threatening flooding of creeks, roads, and normally dry coulees
in and downstream of the Northern Remington and McGhee burn areas is
likely. In addition to the flash flooding, the heavy rains may
trigger rockslides, mudslides, and debris flows in steep terrain.

Turn around, don`t drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood
deaths occur in vehicles. Do not drive on or attempt to cross
flooded roads, find an alternate route. Roads and driveways may be
damaged or washed out in places.

Remain alert for flooding of creeks, streams, and normally dry
coulees even in areas not receiving rainfall downstream of the burn
area. These can become raging killer currents in a matter of minutes
even from distant rainfall upstream.

Please report observed flooding to local emergency officials and
request they pass the information to the National Weather Service in
Billings.
